Austin, Houston, And San Antonio Take The Cake

The Texas real estate market is officially hot! December internet searches were just announced by Yahoo, and Texas wins by a landslide! Of the top 10 cities searched, Houston and San Antonio, Texas were 3 of the most common. Of the top 1.43 million Yahoo searches for real estate in different cities across the nation, Austin had 233,904, Houston had 126752, and San Antonio rang in with 122,669 searches.

Granted, areas with warmer climates tend to be searched for in the winter months, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that if over 36% of the top ten cities searched were in Texas, Texas could be a real estate market worth investing in for 2007. Be sure to check with your real estate agent for current market stats for the Texas area you're thinking about.

According to Kate Morton of the Austin American Statesman, "Central Texas home builders have been offering plenty of year-end discounts and bonuses to boost sales, but that doesn't mean that the Austin area housing market is cooling or that prices are falling. Strong job growth, a steady influx of new residents and relatively affordable prices have kept the Austin housing market strong, even as markets on the East and West coasts faltered. That isn't likely to change in the coming year." This article, along with many others like it, have likely spurred interest in the Texas market across the nation. Pair that with the fact that Austin, Houston and San Antonio are 3 great metro areas of Texas, and it's not hard to figure out why Texas has been such a popular area.
